“I think that if our politics has come to the point where people are trying to buy votes and buy positions, then we are in a very sad place,” Collins told “60 Minutes” on CBS. She later added, “They are asking me to perform an official act and if I do not do what they want, [money] is going to go to my opponent.”
Yet Collins did not seem to view the situation as quid pro quo when Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley told Fox News’s Martha MacCallum that he was " going to help raise $3 million to match" the funds being raised to oppose Collins by her opponents. He also depicted the harsh criticism of Collins as proof that her liberal critics had become radical.
The less blessed Dianne Rehm. Proof that The Golden Mean blesses those with well-constructed arguments based on unskewed and granular analyses that constitute a fair and widely attractive outcome. She’s skewed.

She’s no Handmaid. She’s complicit by accepting 6 figures in Dark Money for her vote for Kavanaugh.

Too bad the voters don’t have that kind of leverage with their “representatives”

Collins is more of an Aunty, directing the Trump Handmaids and other servants how to please him.
